Math question about suckouts

So i got sucked out 19 times more then i sucked out on opponent in last 100 SNGs. By the suckout i consider at least KK loosing vs ATo tipe of hands (70% + favourite). And every time all money in PF.
So on the long run, should be the number of suckouts i made on opponents and they made on me equall or not?

I agree you should win 70% of the time if you are 70% favourite. But you should allso win 30% of the time when you are behind, so imo the number of suckouts should get equall as opponent is allso only entitled to win 70% on the long run when he is ahead, right?

Only if you and your opponents are equally skilled.

If you have a decent edge over your opponents then you will get sucked-out on relatively often since your opponents will persist in putting their stack in the middle with easily dominated hands. ie. Donkeys get more opportunities to suck-out than good players.
